Subscription Terms & Conditions

This Agreement is between the Client identified in the Order Form and Hedgehog SONiC Foundation, Inc. (a Delaware corporation, “Hedgehog”) and expresses the complete agreement of the parties regarding Hedgehog Products and Hedgehog. Capitalized terms are defined below. PLEASE REVIEW THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASING OR ACCESSING THE HEDGEHOG PRODUCTS. CLIENT AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THIS AGREEMENT. HEDGEHOG MAY REASONABLY RELY ON THIS ASSURANCE. AN INDIVIDUAL ACTING ON BEHALF OF AN ENTITY REPRESENTS THAT HE OR SHE HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THAT ENTITY TO THESE TERMS. IF CLIENT DOES NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, THEN IT MAY USE HEDGEHOG PRODUCTS WITHOUT SUPPORT FROM HEDGEHOG. THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDE THE PROVISIONS OF ALL URL REFERENCES IN THIS AGREEMENT.

1. The Mechanics of the Agreement

1.1 Ordering. The Agreement applies to Hedgehog Products that Client purchases or for which Client acquires the right of access or use, including Subscriptions, Professional Services, Training Services, access to Hedgehog Online Properties and other Hedgehog offerings. Client may order Hedgehog Products directly from Hedgehog by submitting a signed Order Form through Hedgehog’s ordering facility. All orders are subject to acceptance by Hedgehog. Affiliates of either party may conduct business under this Agreement by signing an Order Form or other document that references this Agreement and may include additional or more specific terms relating to local requirements or other transaction details. All Hedgehog Products are provided on a non exclusive basis, Client recognizing that Hedgehog has numerous customers.
1.2 Structure. The Agreement consists of: (1) its general terms, including the definitions and third party open-source terms; (2) the Support Terms (which may include third-party end user license agreements) applicable to outstanding Order Forms; (3) the SONiC Open-Source License; (4) all accepted Order Forms; and all URL cross-references.

2. Term

2.1 Agreement Term. The Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues until it is terminated as set forth below.
2.2 Services Term. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Service procured will start at the earlier of (a) Client’s first access to or use of the Service, (b) the date the Order Form is submitted, or (c) the start date identified in the Order Form, and, in each case, will end at the expiration of the Services Term unless sooner terminated as set forth below. Subscriptions automatically renew for successive terms of the same duration as the original Services Term, unless either party gives written notice to the other party of its intention not to renew within at least thirty (30) days of the expiration of the applicable Services Term. Any Services ordered are available only during the applicable Services Term, and any unused Services will then expire.

3. Fees and Payment

3.1 Payment of Fees. Section 3.1 applies only to Hedgehog Products ordered directly from Hedgehog.
a) Unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form, Client will pay Fees for Subscriptions no later than 30 days after the date of Hedgehog’s electronic invoice. Any additional trade credit is subject to Hedgehog’s prior approval and adjustments from time to time.
b) Fees do not include reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, shipping costs, Taxes, or third-party service provider fees (such as payment processor or vendor management), and Client will pay such amounts or reimburse Hedgehog for such amounts paid or payable by Hedgehog. Client must pay the Fees and expenses without withholding, offset or deduction. If Client is required to withhold or deduct any Taxes from the Fees or expenses, then Client agrees to increase the amount payable to Hedgehog by the amount of such Taxes so that Hedgehog receives the full benefit of all Fees and expenses. All Fees, expenses and other amounts paid under the Agreement are non-refundable and payable in US dollars.
c) If Client is purchasing by credit card, then Client (1) authorizes Hedgehog to charge Client’s credit card for all amounts due, and (2) agree to provide updated credit card information to Hedgehog as needed to pay the Fees or other amounts owed, from time to time.
d) If the Order Form provides for payment by ACH or wire transfer, the parties will timely exchange necessary implementation information and cooperate to facilitate payment as provided above on a net thirty day basis.
3.2 Fee Formula. Fees are determined by counting the Units associated with the applicable Hedgehog Product. For example, Subscriptions may be priced based on the number of systems or nodes, as specified in the Order Form. Client will order and pay for the appropriate type and quantity of Hedgehog Products based on Units used or deployed. If during the term of the Agreement, the actual number of Units used or deployed exceeds the number of Units Client previously procured, Client must promptly advise Hedgehog of the adjustment and applicable start dates. Hedgehog will then invoice Client and Client will pay for the additional Units in accordance with the invoice and Order Form.
3.3 The parties will promptly advise each other of any perceived discrepancy in invoicing and amounts due and will use reasonable, good faith efforts to promptly resolve any payment dispute. Late payments bear interest at the rate of one percent per month or any lower legal maximum beginning with the notice of delinquency.

4. Termination

4.1 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement in whole or with respect to any Order Form or Hedgehog Product obtained from Hedgehog by notice to the other party if (a) the other party materially breaches this Agreement, and does not cure the breach within thirty days after written notice (except in the case of a breach of Section 9 in which case no cure period will apply), or (b) the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. In addition, Hedgehog may, at its option and without limiting its other remedies, suspend (rather than terminate) any Services, if Client breaches the Agreement (including with respect to payments due) until the breach is remedied without reducing the amount due.
4.2 Termination for Convenience. Either party may terminate the Agreement by notice to the other party at any time if all Services Terms have expired and there are no Order Forms outstanding. If, during the Service term, Hedgehog makes a good faith effort to support and fix a feature in the certified feature list, but Hedgehog finds that it can no longer support a feature, and it provides the Client an alternative solution, and the Client chooses not to adopt the alternative solution, then Hedgehog shall have the right to terminate for convenience with thirty days written notice.
4.3 Effect of Termination; Survival. The termination or suspension of an individual Order Form or any Hedgehog Products purchased from Hedgehog will not terminate or suspend any other Order Form, Hedgehog Product or the remainder of the Agreement unless specified in the notice of termination or suspension. If the Agreement is terminated in whole, all outstanding Order Form(s) and Services will terminate. If this Agreement or any Order Form is terminated, Client will pay for all Units used or deployed or made available by Hedgehog up to the effective date of termination. Sections 1.2, 3, 4.3, 5.2, 5.3, 9 (to the extent set forth therein), 10, 11 (to the extent set forth therein) and 12-15 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
